Hogwarts just got more dangerous as our story picks up right where we left off, an ominous message written in blood on the wall and a petrified cat hanging in the air.

In this episode of Owl Post: A Harry Potter Podcast hosts Andrea Coffman and Matthew Rushing talk about the ninth chapter of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. We discuss picking up where we left off, Lockhart's over-compensation, character mirroring, Filch, teacher politics, what Dumbledore knows, more on Slytherin, smart students and a Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew adventure. ​
